I have a problem in writing Greek under XP Pro for a DOS Foxpro application.
Greek character appear nicely in XP windows applications and in cmd black window.
How can I solve my problem?
Note that DOS Foxpro application accepts nicely Greek letters under Win98 SE.
Any assistance to solve this problem?

Where do the Greek characters not appear that you expect them, and what, if nything, does appear?

Greek characters under windows applications or cmd window appear correctly.
My problem is when I run a DOS window and more precisely a MS-DOS Forxpro program.
Under config.sys of the OLD PC (win98 SE) the following commands are enclosed

mode con codepage prepare=((737) H:\WINDOWS\ega2.cpi)
mode con codepage select=737
keyb gk,,h:\windows\keybrd4.sys

For the XP installation, I used the same commans in the config.nt and autoexec.nt files but nothing came out.
I then rem all statements inside both config.nt and autoexec.nt files but still nothing came out.

what do you think?
